Vote on Nov. 28th: A bill that would define the USA as a battlefield and Citizens as the enemy and would authorize indefinite detention of anyone anywhere WITHOUT trial

Here is what I know, we have the enemy belligerents act of 2010 which allows the president to declare anyone anywhere an ememy belligerent without evidence, which means you are not protected by the constitution because you are not a citizen. And now we have a bill coming to the floor that would define the USA as a battlefield and Citizens as the enemy and would authorize indefinite military detention of anyone anywhere without trial.


It pretty much means that anyone can be a belligerent as long as the president says so.

Don’t forget the first 3 say “Potential Threat” And “Potential intelligence value” So that means that you don’t even have to pose a threat, just the possibility that you could pose a threat is all it takes to lose all your rights.

Here is the bill that’s going before the Senate next week. The sections in question are 1031 and 1032, according to the ACLU site.

“The Senate is gearing up for a vote on Monday or Tuesday that goes to the very heart of who we are as Americans.

The Senate will be voting on a bill that will direct American military resources not at an enemy shooting at our military in a war zone, but at American citizens and other civilians far from any battlefield — even people in the United States itself.
